Nighttime lows

And this is the reason it was a good idea to close a couple of days this week. At 9:30 pm the temp is 85 with a real feel of 96! Lows like this don't give the greens a chance to recover from the traffic and stress of a day. Mature, older greens can handle these stresses much better than our new, young greens.

One benefit of these temps,maybe the only positive of temps these high, is that the Bermuda looks great. It is growing like crazy right not, which doesn't make it easy for clipping removal, but when we can keep up with the mowing the turf looks fantastic.
